Senator Patrick M. Gallivan (R-C-I, Elma) is being honored by the New York Farm Bureau for his ongoing support of agriculture issues, including sponsorship of bills that the organization has either supported or opposed during the most recent legislative session. The New York Farm Bureau included Gallivan in its distinguished “Circle of Friends.”
“Agriculture is New York’s leading industry and it is important that we support farmers across the state in growing and producing the quality food we depend on. I am honored to be recognized by the New York Farm Bureau and look forward to continuing to work with everyone in the agricultural community,” Gallivan said.
The New York Farm Bureau says the “Circle of Friends” honor is based upon each legislator’s voting record on issues of agricultural importance.
“The selected lawmakers from both the Assembly and Senate were chosen for their commitment to the hard working farm families in New York. Each friend has demonstrated that they understand the importance of agriculture to the people of their legislative district, and how farming significantly impacts the economy of this great state,” said Dean Norton, President of New York Farm Bureau.
The “Circle of Friends” distinction only recognizes the 2014 legislative session.
